Portuguese players celebrate after Ronaldo’s third goal against Spain in Sochi

38 goals were scored in the first set of 16 matches, and we've already seen some big shocks along the way. Many believed the gesture was meant to signal that he was the "GOAT", and Messi did little to help his case as he missed a penalty against Iceland. Nacho, as he did in the game on Friday night, held his hands up to protest his innocence.

Spain and Portugal played an all-time World Cup classic when the two sides faced off last week in a Group B clash at the FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russian Federation, with the match ending at 3-3 at the end of the 90 minutes.

Cristiano Ronaldo's hat trick against Spain set several World Cup and worldwide records for the Portuguese superstar.

But this year, at the 2018 World Cup, he has scored three goals from his first four shots.

There are a million and one ways in which Ronaldo will hurt any football team, and his career has reached a time where his place in the pantheon of greats must be discussed.

It is not the first time De Gea has found himself in the eye of a storm at such a time - shortly after being promoted to the role of first-choice goalkeeper for Euro 2016, he found himself embroiled in a sex scandal.

Spain were not the only pre-tournament favourite to suffer disappointment in their opening game. Once again, these two defenders are expected to play a crucial role. Unless something awful happens, Spain looks a far better unit than Iran as they square off against each other for their first ever duel today at the Kazan Arena.
